Notification Templates

chex-miks · July 16, 2025, 5:23pm

Hello all!
i am helping to configure CheckMK Raw at my current employer. I’m slowly learning a more and more (the documentation has been some of the best I have ever read), but am still trying to learn notifications. I’ve read through all the documentation and have watched a few videos. One of the things I am struggling to wrap my mind around is how people use them in their environments. So that’s my question for you all: What do you have notifications set on and how did you set them up? What is your proudest creation in CheckMK when it comes to notifications.

Ideally, this thread would become a list of notification templates for other newbies, so please make it clear.

For me i’ve set up 2 types of notifications:

email notifications that are sent to a shared mailbox. ( did not fiddle around with any templates)
Discord notifications (as a test) → taken from Discord Checkmk Notification Script · GitHub

Both work without any issues on my end.
